Convert megabytes to mebibytes
mebibytes = megabytes × 0.953674
One megabyte is 0.953674 mebibytes, so multiply by 0.953674 to convert. Going the other way, one mebibyte is 1.0486 megabytes. This is the conversion behind a drive that seems to lose space: manufacturers sell decimal units (1 TB = 10¹² bytes) while Windows displays binary ones (1 TiB = 2⁴⁰ bytes) under the label “TB”. Nothing is missing — the same bytes are being counted in a bigger unit.
